The Lost Empire of Atlantis: History's Greatest Mystery Revealed

My story is about the Minoan fleets that traveled the oceans of the world before the ghastly explosion on Thera in 1450 BC, which wiped out the Minoan civilization. Professor Spyridon Marinatos alerted us all to this adventure in 1964 when he chose to excavate the town of Akrotiri on Thera (Santorini). which had been a major Minoan base in the 2nd millennium BC. By good luck and judgement he stumbled upon the house of an admiral, buried in 1450 BC but still with intact walls. This gave the world its first sight of the superb Minoan ships which had then plied the world.Minoan shipbuilding expertise, which led to the intercontinental voyages without which there would have been no Atlantis civilization , is at the heart of my story.
